Why I was late"On the way to the station, I got hit by a bat, it almost took my head clean off. Then the machine would not accept my ticket and the guy at the gate didn't think I looked like the photo on my travel card. So I had to go home and get my passport.
Then the train was 45 minutes late to the station because of the dangerous badger threat at Carpenters Park.
When I was on the train it took and hour and a half to get past the biscuit factory because the driver was really fat.
Then there was a delay stopping at the station because the train in front had heard we were coming and decided to play a practical joke with a rubber shoe on the track.
That is why I couldn't get here on time today."
What's your best excuse?

I was sleeping in the woods at the time.I was working out of a "labor pool," kind of a day labor thing where people request workers for just one day or something. I found myself a nice warm place to lay down and set my wind up clock to wake me at the right time. Suddenly a troop of Racoons, of which I can't think of any British equivalent, come down to investigate. Not that they're all that friendly, but these must have been fed and taken care of by somebody. Hearing the ticking, one picked it up and carried it about 10 feet before dropping it on something hard and breaking it.
That's right! I was late cause a damn Coon dropped my clock!
Thanks! I rilly like yer accent too, Dude!
